Cyber Security

Cyber security threats are increasing in number, persistence, and sophistication

The majority of companies do not yet appreciate the seriousness of external cyber security threats, whilst those that do have a limited pool of talent to recruit from.

Organizations, from corporations to governments and public organizations need to be proactive in protecting their systems and infrastructure from external threats. As organizations become increasingly reliant on digital infrastructure, from internal digital transformation to employee smart phones, there are increasing opportunities for criminals, competitors, and foreign governments to access sensitive records and disrupt key operations.

Cybercrime is estimated to cost Canadian businesses $3 billion a year—or .17 per cent of GDP. In response, many forward-thinking companies are enhancing their cyber security measures by hiring Chief Information Security Officers (CISO) to effectively protect their organizations.
